THE JETS MADE THE RIGHT MOVE HERE, WISH THEY WOULD OF ALSO GOTR A NUMBER 7 PICK TO PACKAGE BOTH OF THEM FOR A 5TH PICK. REMEMBER THIS FOLKS PLAYERS DON'T PLAY FOR THE LOVE OF THE GAME FIRST NO-MORE, THEY PLAY FOR THE LOVE OF MONEY, ME, ME , ME AND THEN MAYBE THE TEAM. IF REVIS WANTED TO PLAY FOR THE JETS HE WOULD OF SIGNED FOR LESS!!! PERIOD NO IF AND BUTS ABOUT IT. AND BY TRHE WAY I LOVE REVIS, BUT COME ON ALL THE NONSENSE ABOUT WANTING TO BE A LIFE LONG JET PLEASE.....
As a JETS fan for 40 years, this is about a dumb as article . Ive read, the management has done some dumb things but please, don't just write to waste time. And if by chance you are right! Which is a chance in hell! I will become a Patriot fan!!!!
Well to change the tune a bit, this is exactly why the Mets bullpen suxs and needs to be redone again. They can't even hold off the Rockies to get Dickey his 16th. To The Best Policy. Idiota YOU Need to watch your mouth! This is a opinion, your the type of dummy that doesn't know crap about your team. And when I meant get rid of Bay. Let me make it clear for you. Send him to anyone willing to take him. The Mets should eat half or more of his contract , he is a None factor DUMMY!!! AKA a la George Foster or Mo Vaughn remember them! Probably not cause you don't know nothing Fool! Last but not least Policy talk to me when you have been a fan for the same team over 40 years, you probably don't even know who Martin is or Valentine son, so talk what you know. And just shut the ---K up fool!!!!! Thanks Bone! Also Policy stick to your baseball team in Kentucky fool. Opps you don't have one! And the Wild cats sux too fool. My final point was if they can't let him go thats Santana, I said it three weeks ago shut him down and let him lead the staff next year!
The Dodgers have a good prospect lefty Jarret Martin and a shortstop that is Jose Valetine son. I prefer Martin more if they want to trade make it just make sure you get a pitcher back from the Dodgers. 6 of there top ten prospects are pitchers. Can't get one of those jewels. Keep Johan! The rotation will look good next year Dickey,Niese,Harvey,Wheeler or Pelfrey as the number 5. If you want to eat contract eat Bays!!!! at least 10 million. And get a single A prospect !
Santana has won 46 games and lost 34 for a not so great Mets team so far into his contract. They would be smart to shut him down. But if they can get one great prospect for him aka pitcher in return then make the change. If not just let him rest this year is wasted. Bring up Wheeler to take his place and go from there. Remember pitchers usually take 2 years to recover fully from that surgery. Let him strengthen his arm and lead the charge, next year. Also the bullpen is looking like its shaping up, if the Mets are really watching these guys, Hafner, Gee, Edgin, Parnell, Franky and another real good lefty looks, and it looks like a really good pen for next year, Get rid of the rest of the nonsense in the pen and hold Ramirez in the minors till he get control. I LIKE Santana, Dickey,Niese,Harvey,Wheeler. Followed up by that pen....
I would sign him to the League minimum and see how he goes from there. Let him Practice with the team and see how you can work him in to the game shape. You can always cut him with that kind of contract. Plus there are about 3 stiff's on each team, that are worst the him! Orlando just got ten for Howard! Why not give him a chance you can lose anything!
Wilpon probably told Hernandez to tone it down and stop making it seem like the ship is sinking. Yeah right Wilpon show your face when the Mets need some pieces to make a run at a playoff spot. Instead of showing your ugly headwhen its not needed. I hope for his sake he was telling Keith not to worry he finally decided to spare him and all the Met fans and sell the team. He just felt the need to let him know first.
Funny this article is a day late dollar short. As I said yesterday, this is the same team traded Shaq for Nada!!!! Now they have a new G.M. and what does he do? Trade the best center in basketball for 10 stiff bodies! Not one star! Only the Magic can be so dumb to do this twice and be suckered by the Lakers twice!! Unreal stupidity is high on the Orlando management ladder.
Funny thing happens when management thinks they know more then the baseball people they hire! That is the case in Boston... Valentines a very good manager, this team was doomed from the beginning of the season, when they wouldn't give him his own staff and the new GM thinks he knows more baseball then Bobby please get real. This is a classic case of stupid management a page out of the " I know more then you book". And once he gets fired, allot of people will see that it is truelly the players that have gotten fat and content there in Red Sox Nation!!!
Epstein is a genius in his own mind, If he let Dempster listen in on a trade conversation, he might as well had let him trade himself too. Probably would have done a better job. He so smart he still has Soriano sittting in leftfield. I can go on to say he should of let Soriano listen in too and had him a workout his own trade.
Sad but true Boras is like a cancer, I'm surprised teams still deal with him! Boras himself is a person that overprices all his players, but you'll have some stupid management pay what he ask's just to get some creditability. Let's see who he compare's Ellsbury productivity too? And then expand it out say the next seven years. Which is truelly one of the dumbest things I have ever heard! Unless the player is 23 to 25 years of age don't talk to me about the next seven years of what he might be able to do. Like I said i dont like Boras, but management is to blame because they agree to pay his outlandish mombo-jumbo price!
Funny, about three days ago I suggested on another blog, that if the mets wanted to compete they should trade for him, a better package deal I would like to see Holt,Murphy,Marte,Mejia then I would stick him right in with his old pal Santana,Dickey,Niese,Harvey,Lariano. So they can try and show the fans they care!!! Valdespine would move to second everyday.
Funny how dumb this sounds, if you are so upset with Kane Put him on the trading block and see if you don't have ever team in the NHL interested. I'll take him on the Rangers, you're so desperate to trade him or get rid of him, here's a few draft picks and acouple of no-names. You'll see how much you'll want to keep him. Find something to talk about, he did win a cup for your sorry FRANCHISE!!! GROW UP!!
I've been saying these for almost two years now! To see a team win 70 to 80 game, you might as well bring up the farm. They should of traded Reyes earlier last year. Now they must wait and see if Santana and Wright produce, if so they should not waste time in trading them. Don't look for false hope and think these team will overachieve. It's going to take 91 wins for a wildcard spot, Once again these team will be lucky to break even. So these time get rid of Wright, Santana and eat some of Bay contract if he is having a great year. And bring on the prospects. It also looks better to win 78 games and have a payroll of 55mil, then win 75 and pay 97 million.
They will lose the same amount of games and be non-competitive with Santana, Bay AND Wright they need to hope they have big years. So they can trade them and speed the total rebuilding process and drop another 40 mil in payroll. It is more but they are gona have to swallow at least 10 mil to get rid of the three of them and get good prospects in return. Then they could use a good free agency in 2013 to start the process, behind their young talent. And a lot of hope if Wilpon still owns the team!!!
Funny, I remember last year, so many people said we wouldn't get Melo, we just dont have the piece! Why would he come here? Well Celt fan's for get about it! And all you hater, writers and whinners. Like I stated last year Melo is gona be a knick, oh my world he is! Let me say it again Paul will be a knick period. He has made it known just like Melo did. What everyone needs to realize especially the so called expert aka ESPN writers is this! They dont care about the money anymore! Melo has made his 80 to 100 million, so has Paul a good 50 to 80 million, They come to New York and lose no money. And if you have not seen the change and the trend, you weren't paying attention to the real statement Labron made! I dont care about anything else, what will define me as a WINNER IS MORE THEN ONE CHAMPIONSHIP!!!! Ask Ewing how does it feel to be great and have all that money and a Hall of Fame ring!!! Yet be told sorry you didn't win the big one buddy. IT SUXS!!!! These guys have big ego's and truelly want to win. So here is one for you experts, like I said last year! He will be in a Knick uniform maybe not this year, but thier is wait to next year!!!! HAHAHA...
Birdman, makes such a logical point! About being a fan if it's your team, all the greater. But me being a life long Knick FAN it's about time! Last i knew we haven't been any good for 15 years and haven't won a championship since 1972 and i mean 1972! Because we spend like the Yankees does not make us elite! The fan's of other teams have laughed long enough at the Knicks. Also lets point out that, just because you have three great players doesn't mean you always win! AKA Miami, it is still a team sport. Also it is not the fault of the Celtics, Lakers, Bulls or Spurs. They got lucky in the draft and have great management. I would also like to know from those crybaby fan's, five elite teams . Name them? Please just be a fan and cheer for your team win or lose! I'm A NEW YORK KNICK FAN! 40 YEARS! One championship in all those years and allot of heart break, so please stop the whinning and be glad there is basketball!!!!!
The fact of the matter is the Mets are trying to get Reyes on the cheap, not going to happen! They should of thaught abot that before signing Bay. Take care of your own first. Then llok outward. At this point it is useless to think of Reyes as a Met. Use the money on the Bullpen aka Nathan, Capp AND Broxton or Oliver and get a good Starter and move foward. AKA get ride of Pagan and Pelfrey go with SIZEMORE AND CAPUANO.
Also Policy stick to your baseball team in Kentucky fool. Opps you don't have one! And the Wild cats sux too fool. My final point was if they can't let him go thats Santana, I said it three weeks ago shut him down and let him lead the staff next year!
